The modern dining kitchen is equally impressive and boasts built in cooking appliances and a neff integrated dishwasher.

A separate, fully fitted utility room adds convenience along with a guest wc, and internal access leads directly to the generous double garage, complete with an electronically operated door.

Descending to the lower ground floor, the sense of space and serenity continues. The luxurious master bedroom is a peaceful retreat, boasting French style doors that open onto the decked sun terrace, offering captivating views over the landscaped rear garden and the sweeping vistas beyond. Two additional double bedrooms provide spacious and serene accommodation for family or guests, while a charming snug/family area offers additional flexible living space, also with direct access to the terrace - this room was formerly a fourth bedroom. A wall has been removed from the hallway to create the room as it stands now. Re-instating the wall and doorway, prospective buyers could reinstall the use of this area as a fourth bedroom if required.

The beautifully appointed family bathroom is designed with a refined touch, featuring a four-piece suite including a bath and a spacious corner shower enclosure with an electric shower system. A substantial underground storage room completes the internal offering, ideal for wine storage, a gym, or simply ample household storage.

Externally, the appeal continues with a driveway leading to the double garage, providing ample off-street parking.
